# Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice (entrepreneurship-theory-and-practice)

## Journal positioning

Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice (ETP), published by SAGE, is one of the two flagship entrepreneurship journals and is distinguished by its strong theory-development orientation across the full breadth of entrepreneurship research. Where its sibling JBV centers tightly on the venturing process, ETP welcomes conceptual and empirical work across diverse methods — quantitative, qualitative, and conceptual — united by a substantive contribution to entrepreneurship theory. The audience is entrepreneurship scholars, so a paper must advance how the field theorizes entrepreneurial phenomena, not merely describe them.

This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the SAGE / ETP site and the submission system.

## When to trigger

- The author names ETP (or the entrepreneurship flagship tier) as the venue.
- A theory-forward entrepreneurship paper — conceptual, qualitative, or quantitative — needs a home that prizes theoretical contribution.
- An entrepreneurship study needs re-framing so the theoretical advance, not the description, leads.
- The author needs ETP's desk-reject risks and a credible `journal-of-business-venturing` / `academy-of-management-journal` / `strategic-management-journal` alternative list.
